I am 100% sure that the current Supreme Court will never let https://www.congress.gov/bill/106th-congress/house-bill/3244/text https://www.congress.gov/bill/106th-congress/house-bill/3244... (which prohibits involuntary servitude since the year 2000) come in the way of prison slavery.
Moreover, the Civil War looks to have been for nothing, as there always was the exemption to lock up any number of people and enslave them, without restriction. A trial-by-jury wouldn't help in this regard if the law itself is unreasonable.
I argue that the existence of prison slavery also contributes to the suppression of developing AI and robotics technology to do the same work.
- BillyTheMage 3y agoThere were 2 states that were allowed to continue being slave states after the civil war. Kentucky didn't recognize the Emancipation Proclamation until sometime in the 1970s. All of history is propaganda.

DE, KY, and NJ. > Kentucky didn't recognize the Emancipation Proclamation until sometime in the 1970s. Kentucky was a Union state and not impacted by the Emancipation Proclamation; it was one of the three where slavery remained until the 13th Amendment.
